Assessment Task
We now have a 21st Century technological classroom; it is no longer a traditional classroom. How can we arrange our classroom to suit our new style of learning and all the equipment we use? Create a plan with dimensions of area, perimeter and volume to show what this new class environment would look like.
Tools you can use Google Sketchup and Lego Digital Designer, PowerPoint, Word or Keynote. Make models with boxes or real lego or blocks. If you have another idea, discuss it with your teacher.
